Hi Paul,
Below is a copy of a tutorial that Paul T. wrote for the VIP student list which 
might be useful.
"I took a little time recently to explore one of the more popular social 
networking web sites called Facebook. I thought for anyone interested it might 
be a good idea to write up something on how to sign up for the site so here it 
is. 

What is a Social Networking web site? 

A social network service focuses on building online communities of people who 
share interests and activities, or who are interested in exploring the 
interests and activities of others. 

Facebook is a social networking website launched on February 4, 2004. The 
free-access website is privately owned and operated by Facebook, Inc. ... It is 
a social networking service for high school, college, university, corporate, 
non-profit, military and geographic communities. 

How to set up a profile in Facebook. 

1. Go to the site: www.facebook.com 

2. The home page itself is pretty user friendly and about a third of the way 
down you will be asked to fill in your details if you are not already 
registered. The following will be required: *. Email address. *. New password. 
I am combo box sex clickable. Here arrow up or down to choose male or female. 
*. Birthday, Month combo box. *. Birthday Day combo box *. Birthday Year combo 
box. 

3. When you have the above information filled in, and if you are a jaws user, 
first come out of forms mode by using the "numpad Plus key on your keyboard. 
Then arrow down three times till you come to a sign in button. 

Note: Why we do it as I mention above is that for some reason if you press tab 
key after inserting the year of your Birth Jaws will not see the sign in button 
and you will be placed on a different link. 

4. Also while signing up to Facebook you will be asked to solve a captia. This 
is a little graphic image of text or numbers of some sort. It could in some 
cases be a picture. To do this you will need sighted help or if you are a 
firefox user then go to the website: www.webvisum.com and sign up for the 
firefox plugin. This plugin can help with the screens that require you to fill 
in captions. I will write about this another time. 

6. Once the caption has been filled in again arrow down to the "sign in button" 
as tabbing will jump over it and you will miss it. Hit enter on the button and 
you will move into the next page which will inform you that a confirmation 
email has been sent to the email address you used in the signing up process. 

7. Once you have opened up the confirmation email and clicked on the link 
provided in it you will be ready to start setting up Facebook. 

Here are the 4 steps you will have to go through in order to set yourself 

up: 

Step 1 

Confirm Friends 

Step 2 

Find Friends 

Step 3 

Profile Information 

Step 4 

Join a Network 

Step 1. What happens here is that if already someone in the past has requested 
you to be their friend on Facebook those names will be down near the bottom of 
the page and if you still wish to make that contact with them then you can 
click on the accept button just beneath their name. Also if you wish not to get 
involved you can also click on the ignore link. 

Step 2. Once this part is finished you will move on to the next part which is 
where you are prompted to enter your email and password in order to make new 
friends. Again this step is near the bottom of the page, about two thirds of 
the way down and is up to you if you wish to do this or you can skip this step 
if you want. 

Step 3. Profile information is where you fill in some details about yourself 
and anything else you feel relevant. 

Step 4. Join a network, you can now choose which country you would like to join 
up too. I just left it at the default for me which was Ireland. 

9. When you have each of the above sections completed, just click on the next 
button at the bottom of each section to move on. Once all the above steps have 
been completed, you will now be placed onto the completed page with your own 
inbox, edit box to make a comment and share with others and if you have any 
friends added to your profile they will also be present on your page. 

I hope you find this tutorial just enough to get you up and running with 
Facebook and that you enjoy it".

        hi folks, 
        can somebody give me instructions on how to use face book, 
        at least three people have asked me  to be their friend on face book, 
        but  not knowing what to do, i have either ignored them or made a mess 
of it, 
        just got another message
        eg:
        Francis Murphy added you as a friend on Facebook. We need to confirm 
that you know Francis 

         

        so from this message, what should i do, and  could you give me the jaws 
keystrokes, presumably it works with jaws

        thanks

        paul
